EFCC hands Fayose his flight ticket to Lagos

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has handed over the flight ticket of AyodeleFayose, former governor of Ekiti state, to him, according to Nation.

Fayose, who is currently at the commission’s head office in Abuja, is expected to be arraigned at a federal high court in Lagos on Monday.

The commission has listed 11 charges, published by TheCable, against the former governor who walked into the EFCC head office after handing over power on Tuesday.

An official of the anti-graft agency had told TheCable that the former governor was served with the charges on Friday evening.

The ex-governor is facing trial in connection with N1.299 billion and $5.3 million allegedly allocated to him by the office of the national security adviser (ONSA) from N4.65 billion slush fund allegedly shared by ONSA.

But the ex-governor denied collecting $5.3 million from Musiliu Obanikoro, a former minister of state for defence.

He was said to have only admitted knowing Obanikoro and his associate, Abiodun Agbele, who allegedly bought six choice properties for him in Lagos and Abuja.

He was also said to have confirmed during interrogation that Agbele bought the properties for him.

The EFCC released pictures of some of the houses on the third day of Fayose in detention.

The revered apostle known for his prowess of divine insight started with saying: Every day we talk about how we so much need the mercy of God but today we want to talk about how it works—we always say father have mercy, father show me mercy, father I need your mercy, father I wear your mercy as a garment, father let your mercy heal me, father let your mercy deliver me, father let your mercy speak for my business, father let your mercy do this for me, let your mercy do that for me, but how does this mercy of God works in our life? How does this mercy speak for us? How does this mercy activate in our lives? Enakhena asked.
